Excited that these two meetings on forecasting (one general, one specific to infectious diseases) are finally happening, 13-16 March, having been years in the making and delayed multiple times due to the pandemic royalsociety.org/science-eve… and royalsociety.org/science-eve… 1/5

I’m excited to announce that I’m looking for a postdoc to join my lab! I feel like most ads focus on the research/project/PI, so here’s a thread about what YOU will get as part of the position.

I am delighted to share that I’ve been promoted to full professor at UMASS Amherst!
That, and the end of my sabbatical leave, seemed like a good time to reflect a little on my work and field so far and how I plan to move forward....

So whatever your views on COVID, I'd encourage you to try it. Put pen to paper and convert your implicit mental model of COVID into a tangible prediction about the future. You don't have to show anyone, but it might give you something useful to reflect on in future. 4/4
These surveillance system reporting delays are why systems like the German Hospitalization Nowcast Hub, run by @johannesbracher et al, are valuable.

In yesterday's @nytimes @DLeonhardt explores an apparent contradiction, saying masks work against #COVID19 but mask mandates do not. The premise of this article is wrong. The evidence is clear that mask mandates work. Let's take a look (1/14)
